Fern Britton missed out on a trip to Wembley as she and partner Artem Chigvintsev were beaten in the dance-off by Kimberley Walsh and Pasha Kovalev in week 6.

It was the right result in the end with Craig Revel Horwood, Darcey Bussell, Bruno Tonioli and Len Goodman all voting to keep Kimberley Walsh. Kimberley looked shocked to be in the dance-off, having finished joint second on the leaderboard after the judges’ scoring. She was not alone; Bruno in particular looked horrified. For some reason she was lacking viewer support in the phone vote. Maybe her fans thought she was safe and didn’t bother voting but it shows that no-one is safe without the support of the public. Bet her supporters don’t make that mistake again.
